Finance requires a certain degree of intelligence. Not to say that Arabs aren't bright. Or even capable. They sure have managed to resist progress and technology. No easy feat these days. Not to mention that whole feminism movement. Women driving cars? And having rights? The very thought both frightens and confuses me.
And let's not forget how tolerant and progressive minded they are. It really is a mystery why they aren't more involved with the arts and hollywood. I, for one, would love to see more burka clad women in porn. Maybe that's where they could make their bones.
But alas, all is not lost. To this day, nobody does terrorism and cowardly murder like radical islam. And of course by radical islam, I mean islam. Plus, as anybody from NYC can tell you, arabs have completely dominated the cab driving and street peddling industries.
I'm not Jewish. I'm Italian. I'm pretty sure we have just as much, if not more, Italians working in the banking industry. But hey. you've been able to single out 4 or 5 Jews, so it must all be their fault. After all, you don't have any agenda, do you? I'm new to the Politics board. I'm sure if I read this forum, I won't find most of your postings to be anti Israel or anti-semetic. Will I?

Israel's video for the Gaza "activists"...
1. That is not "Israel's video," but a video prepared by Caroline Glick, sort of the Israelli Rush Limbaugh, that was sent to the government. They thought it was funny and made a link to it.
2. The video is substantially accurate to the extent that the mercenaries - some of whom have now been linked by the IDF to Al Queda - were in fact attempting to con the world.

Hamas has a seemingly endless supply of guns and bombs. Ships like the ones in question are/were a primary source, hence the reason for the blockade in the first place.
Even though the world wants to hold Israel to standards no other nation would ever be expected to live up to, it's foolish to think that these "activist" were going to attack IDF soldiers and not receive a violent response.
It's called self defense. Speaking of which, let's remember how Israel came to possess the west bank and gaza in the 1st place; when you fire the 1st shot, it's kinda hard to bitch about the consequences.

No, mine was good parody. Even if a little broad.
These hasbara mongering clowns are probably known professionally as the Marikod Family Singers.
